I think Bertie has been discussing that Transavia Skytruck from down
under; the one in the Mad Max movie.
Now THAT'S one UGLY airplane. The only reason it flies is that
it's SO
ugly the earth repels it :-)

That's the one.

But ya gotta admit, if they were gonna have an airplane in a Mad Max
flick, that was the one to have. A Wilga or one of those horrid
French pre-WWII monstrosities might have done in a pinch, but why
truck in *ugly* when you got it in the back yard? ;)

Exactly! That airplane is why the Aussies are such good airplane
drivers. If you can fly something that looks like THAT, you can fly
just about anything!!

It really is kind of off the chart, isn't it? I imaing eit must fly
fairly well, burt what do you even use as a yardstick to measure it
against?
